Some things you just know

The people we love aren't generic.

Looking after them shouldn't be either. Parents, grandparents, aunts, godparents and old friends: life happens between people, wherever they are.

Kinship Visits

Someone there.
Time just for them.

A visit starts with what would help them. A qualified nurse visits and provides support in their home. Their Kinkeeper coordinates the plan and reviews the report.

  • Support agreed with them
  • Time together in person
  • An update after the visit

Wherever you are,
you'll know how they are.

After each visit, their Kinkeeper reviews the report and shares an update with the people they have chosen.

Chip in together

One person.
As many people as want to help.

Brothers, cousins, godchildren and old friends can each chip in towards one plan, together as one payment. The person at the centre chooses who sees their updates.

How it works

Three steps. Then someone's there.

  1. 1

    Tell us about them

    Who the plan is for and where they live. No payment until we confirm availability.

  2. 2

    We agree it with them

    We call to welcome them and agree what would help.

  3. 3

    You hear after every visit

    Their Kinkeeper reviews each visit and shares an update with the people they choose.

How a Kinship Plan works

The Plan is the people.

Anyone can create a free Kinship account. A Kinship Plan adds the people who do the work, and you add what they need on top.

Every plan includes

The Kinship Plan

£20 a month, for one person, or £17 a month billed yearly

  • The Kinship care teamBooks appointments, tests and transport, and acts quickly in an emergency.
  • Doctor's callsA doctor in Nigeria by phone or video, booked in the app.
  • Kemi, day and nightOn WhatsApp and in the app: reminders, bookings and answers. Anything worrying goes to the Kinship care team.
  • One app for everyoneOne record. They choose who sees what. Several people chip in as one payment.

Why Kinship

Why is looking after someone else harder than looking after yourself?

It shouldn't be. Kinship is built around the person at the centre and the people looking out for them: one plan, a named Kinkeeper who reviews every visit, and as many people as want to help.

How it works →

I wanted to look after my mum properly, from wherever I was. I went looking for something that would let me do that, and it didn't exist. So we built it.

We're starting with home visits in Lagos. The idea is bigger: anyone should be able to look after anyone, wherever they are.

Tobi LawalCo-founder and CEO. Previously led new partner development at Direct Line and Aviva, and partnerships at ManyPets and Drover.

Before you begin

Who can the plan be for?

Someone who matters to you, or yourself.

Who sees the updates?

The person receiving support chooses what is shared and with whom. Paying towards a plan does not give automatic access or control.

Can others chip in?

Yes. People who want to help can arrange contributions together as one payment.

Can I chip in from outside the UK?

Yes. Supporters can chip in from anywhere in the world. Prices are shown in pounds.

What is the Founding 100?

The first 100 plans with visits include a free physical health assessment at one of our partner clinics in Lagos for the person at the centre of the plan. 43 places are left.

What if a visit doesn't happen?

If a booked visit doesn't happen, you don't pay for it. We will rebook it with them at a time that suits.

What happens after I continue?

Tell us who the plan is for and where they live. We will confirm support and visit availability before you agree. No payment is taken in this form.

Kinship

Love, looked after.
Wherever you are.
